Housewarming Party! Apartment Above Luke's, Friday Afternoon Till Evening

[spin_kick_snap]

Raven and Kathy were officially moved in!

Okay, not everything was done and most of their stuff was still at Eliot's, but they'd gotten a lot of work done painting and assembling furniture and most of what was left could be moved over a bit at a time. Which meant...it was close enough to being fully moved in that a small party was warranted. Especially if you were looking for a way to show you were nice, sane and adjusted a reason to party!

The party proper started at 6pm with plenty of delicious foods to enjoy, but people were more than welcome to come over early and help with the remaining wall painting and furniture assembling there was to do. Help was appreciated, but mostly people were invited to over to eat, relax, and help make this new place feel like a real home.

Kathy nudged the salad over towards Jalian. Her own plate was also barren save for salad greens. "Sorry," she apologized. "I forgot you were a vegetarian."

Jalian shrugged. "I am used to it." She eyed Kathy curiously but with a sharp edge. "You were dead?"

Re: Dinner!

Kathy shrugged. "I think the proper term is 'undead'," she said. "My vital signs had stopped and everything that made me Kathy was gone, but I was still shambling around. Has anyone shown you a zombie flick yet?"

"Maybe. I don't remember." Jalian shrugged. "But you're here now. Is it strange?"

Re: Dinner!

[spin_kick_snap]

"Yes," Kathy said wryly. "Whether you mean if the idea of resurrection is strange or if I'm finding it strange being back, both answers are yes."

Re: Dinner!

Jalian nodded. "That's expected, I think. But I'm glad you're back. And Raven."

Possibly one of those more than the other, but she was tactful enough not to say it.

Re: Dinner!

That was fair. Kathy couldn't pretend to having the kind of relationship with Jalian that Raven had.

"I'm glad to be back," she said, chasing a cherry tomato with her fork. "But it's an adjustment, that's for sure."

Re: Dinner!

[kenselvren]

Jalian nodded. "You will make it."

Or she wouldn't. There were really only the two options, weren't there?

Re: Dinner!

[spin_kick_snap]

"I'd better," Kathy said. "I'm pretty sure they didn't bring me back just so I could give up at the first difficulty I encountered."

Re: Dinner!

[kenselvren]

"No," Jalian agreed. She shrugged. "You don't give up easily." If she had, she wouldn't have died in the first place, after all.

Re: Dinner!

[spin_kick_snap]

True, which meant that that might not be the best trait to cultivate here.

"Giving up was never tolerated growing up," Kathy said with a shrug, spooning more salad onto her plate. "Never really learned the knack of it."

"Sometimes being stubborn is the only way to get things done," Jalian said, shrugging.
